Joe Abercrombie's books (the First Law trilogy and three semi-sequels) hit some of the same notes. If anything, even grimmer in outlook, and with a substantial dose of dark "British humour". Richard Morgan's The Steel Remains is alright, dude tries a little too hard though.

In general - you didn't do too bad just by asking on here... Find places where relevant people (in this case, let's be honest, nerds) congregate and pipe up. People love to talk about their favourite books, bands, etc. You can normally skim some pages on Amazon to see if the prose style's going to be gratingly irritating to you or something.
